On the bottom is wbar, that's right. But it's an old version, Actually a modified version of 1.3.3 with setup.

The Icons on the right are the usual drive icons. I did set them to the right side in /etc/eventmanager.

Code:

#left, right, bottom, or top of screen...
ICON_PLACE_ORIENTATION='right'

The icon theme is my personal edition of the faenza icon set.

I have put a script into LazY Puppy that makes symbolic links from /usr/share/pixmaps, from /usr/local/lib/X11/pixmaps and some other paths to the wbar icon directory in /usr/share/wbar/wbar.icons - so, i can use all those icons in wbar. If I do switch the icon theme the wbar icons do change also this way. _________________LazY PuppyRSH's DNASARA B.

Hey thanks for that SFC. just one last thing i want to say and that is.....it would appear as though the googleimages would be the best of the scripts. but based on my history with using them, the interfacelift.com script is really the best. it doesn't freeze sometimes like the google one does...it seems to randomize better...(for one reason or another the google one tends to duplicate more often), and also.....the wallpapers are plentiful and tend to be more beautiful and more like 'real' wallpapers.

i wish i had said these things before u rewrote the app. but i do think...u'd like the ifl one better.

Good job though...the new RWC looks really nice.

Hey Stifiling

The problem with InterfaceLift is it seems that categories as well as resolutions are 'hard-coded', that's why I've chosen googleimages, which gives more...err...freedom..?
For instance, one can choose "cat+sweet+fluffy" or "thermonuclear+explosion+mayhem" in any resolution and he/she'll get, more or less of course, what was expected.

But it's not a big problem really, I've resolved that this way:
If user enters * into 'Search query' and/or 'Resolution' field - then InterfaceLift will be in use; otherwise - GoogleImages.

I am testing on Akita, which doesn't use the ROX pinboard by default,
so ROX pops up an error msg when the pinboard is first enabled by RWC,
and a default pinboard instance is started, with only the default Home icon visible...
But of course this doesn't happen if the ROX pinboard is already running...

Anyway, the above problem is not really anything to do with your app,
just what happens when ROX is not already running, but it brings me to the question...

Would it be possible (if you're even interested) to make this app use feh to set the wallpaper?

Akita uses feh when the ROX pinboard is not active.. It builds and runs another script. Example of the generated script below:

Would it be possible (if you're even interested) to make this app use feh to set the wallpaper?

I think it would . It's just a matter of modifying rwc-main script - it checks if XFCE is the default WM (cat /etc/windowmanager | grep xfce), if not - ROX is set as default.
It will be enough to modify main 'if..else..fi' condition in the mentioned script.

I'll download Akita and see how to best adapt RWC to it, but if you'll be the first, just let me know, so I'll include it.

because if there's Rox pinboard in use AND feh is also installed (in other Puppies, for instance, as a part of Battleshooter's Conky+Lua), RWC would use feh then.
(phew, it took me a while to find out "how to determine if pinboard is in use or not", btw)

So, RWC now works with Akita's default configuration (feh), but if user decides to use pinboard, it works aswell.

Also, Akita has different output of xrandr, so I've added small modification and current resolution should be recognized correctly now.

PS. I didn't test it "exhaustively", but everything seems to work fine so far; couldn't find any flaw...but future will tell.

Thanks, thats great.. Just a quick question, what am I supposed to do when I get the 'only 1 instance' popup msg, to get the GUI to load again? (Aside from killing it manually - I'm thinking of noobs and novices...)_________________Akita Linux, VLC-GTK, Pup Search, Pup File Search

@Sc0ttman:
I _think_ I found the actual bug, it was /usr/bin/rwc-config:

Code:

exec /usr/local/RWC/rwc-config &

I've no idea why did I put & there, but for 90% it was the cause; most likely /usr/bin/rwc-config process was dying too slow. Interesting that it wasn't happend in Slacko..?
But thanks again, it was definitely RWC bug.
I hope it'll be ok now.

I've also added experimental support for LXDE (tested only on LXPup).

__________________________

Since all versions are scattered in different places in this thread, quick summary of supported DEs:
- XFCE
- ROX
- ROX (without pinboard, but with 'feh' as wallpaper setter)
- LXDE (experimental)

EDIT: tiny bugfix in detecting current resolution; if it works for you, ignore it. Reuploaded after 5 downloads.
